Asian Authority Audit

If you are doing everything right at work—delivering results, being reliable, taking ownership—but still not being seen as a leader, this is where we identify why. This work is for Asian American women who are already performing at a high level but are no longer willing to be overlooked. If you want to stop being evaluated and start positioning yourself for leadership, apply below.

The more approval you need before making a decisio The more approval you need before making a decision, the more authority you give away.

Many Asian-American women were taught that seeking input is responsible.

So they gather more data, ask more people for their opinion, do more research, double-check their thinking. 

But at some point, what feels like diligence starts looking like hesitation.

And hesitation has a cost.

Not just in decision-making, but in if you’re seen as an influential leader. 

If you've ever been told to be more strategic, more confident, or show more executive presence, The Authority Shift was created for you.

Comment SHIFT and I'll send you access to my free private audio series.
I’m still sitting in how it felt to be with these I’m still sitting in how it felt to be with these incredible women for three days at the ⚡️Dynamic Dreams⚡️ mastermind event in Seattle.

It was more than an event. Day 1️⃣ was coming home. Day 2️⃣ was relaxing, staying neutral, and trusting ourselves. Day 3️⃣ was being in action.

These women didn’t just sit there and listen; they did the deep dive work to excavate what’s next for 2026 and to prime themselves for a quantum 2027. 🔥

What emerged was bigger than anything they’ve let themselves desire before. Goals and dreams that are immeasurably, exceedingly, abundantly bigger than they thought possible.🎯

A few things I heard over the weekend:

“I am capable, just as I am.”

“I can, I will.”

“To lead is to be OK with doing the best I can with the knowledge that I don’t know everything.”

They’re walking away feeling the thrill and clarity that comes from creating new businesses, shifting career, and connecting deeply with themselves. They saw the exact steps to become the biggest, boldest versions of themselves yet. They’re also - especially! - keeping it simple and doing it RELAXED. 💆🏻‍♀️

If you’ve been working hard to earn the authority and ownership that’s already inside you, this is your sign that it doesn’t have to be heavy. Being around women who see you fully changes what you believe you can do.

If you want to feel that kind of coming home, dm MASTERMIND and I’ll send you the details. 💛

The fastest way to stay overlooked at work? Waiti The fastest way to stay overlooked at work?

Waiting until you're 100% certain before sharing what you think.

Many Asian-American women were taught to consider everyone else's needs before their own.

So we get used to deferring, even in small moments.
Here's a simple exercise I teach my clients:

The next time you're making plans for dinner, decide what you want before asking anyone else.

Not because your opinion matters more.

Because you're practicing trusting your own thinking.

Then say it out loud:
"I was thinking Thai food sounds good tonight. What do you think?"

Small moment, massive shift.

Because every time you automatically defer to someone else's preference, you reinforce the habit of looking outside yourself first.

And over time, that habit doesn't just affect dinner plans.

It shows up in meetings, decision-making, your leadership.

The women who are seen as strategic leaders aren't always the smartest people in the room.

They're often the people who trust their own thinking enough to share it.

If you've ever been told to speak up more, be more strategic, or show more executive presence, comment SHIFT and I'll send you The Authority Shift, my free private audio series.

In this episode of School of Self Worth, I talk wi In this episode of School of Self Worth, I talk with Cloe Zeng, Chief Growth Officer at the Gottman Institute and former senior leader at Microsoft. 

If you're the reliable one, the one who gets it done, and you still find out about high-impact decisions that affect you after they're made, this conversation is for you.

Cloe was raised to believe her work would speak for itself, and what she did after she discovered it didn’t. She talks about how she learned to advocate for herself and the detailed steps that actually helped her rise as a leader.

In the conversation with Cloe, learn about why you don't have to choose between ambition and family, and why you become a better leader when you don’t.

THE TOP LEARNINGS IN THIS EPISODE:

⭐ Balancing Ambition and Family Is Possible
⭐ Career Growth Is a Lifelong Journey, Not a Single Track
⭐ The Power of Presence: Responding to Bids for Connection
⭐ Self-Advocacy and Intentional Career Conversations
⭐ The Importance of Imagination and Representation in Leadership
